Bowl Chair | Armchair

With the reproduction of Bardi's Bowl Chair, Arper brings to light the passionate work of Lina Bo Bardi. The armchair, designed in 1951 in Brazil, home of choice for Lina Bo Bardi, never went into production before the edition created in 2012 by Arper. Like most of his projects, in which man's interaction with the object is fundamental, it is conceived as an accessible and flexible object, capable of harmoniously integrating into any environment. Thanks to the different possible combinations of the seat, the armchair performs multiple functions: it favors interaction between people around a coffee table, it becomes a refuge in which to immerse yourself in reading when it is tilted, and it transforms into a cradle in which to take a nap when facing with the opening facing up. Arper has tried to represent Lina Bo Bardi's original idea in the best possible way, finding a balance between the interpretation of the original project and the added value given by its technical skills and the use of modern industrial production technologies. Every detail has been reinterpreted with care and attention. Even if the only existing original example is in black leather, Arper wanted to expand the range of finishes by selecting fabrics that best reflect Lina's lively spirit and the creative symbiosis of her two cultures, Italian and Brazilian.
